you can't define 2 beans with the same type and the same name (in this case empty by default). if you want to make it pluggable(that a word?) you first need to give it a name, like
<bean type="sometype" class="mytextprovider" name="mytextprovider" /> that will register the bean in the container (also give a default name to the current provider, like "struts"). Now, that bean is not used, because xwork is wired to use the default provider. So you need to add a constant that will act like a "switch" for text provider implementations: <constant name="struts.textProvider.class" value="mytextprovider" /> Then you register the bean in BeanSelectionProvider, like: alias(TextProvider.class, "struts.textProvider.class", builder, props); The ActionMapper is a perfect example of this, look at struts-default.xml and BeanSelectionProvider. musachy On Mon, Jul 27, 2009 at 1:42 PM, Lukasz Lenart<lukasz.len...@googlemail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm working on two bugs regarding injecting custom TextProvider into > XWork classes.
